Itinerary

This tour departs from the glacier edge and offers guests the chance to venture into a giant, 953sq/km glacier upon Iceland’s second-largest glacier, Langjökull. Tourists from all over the world are drawn to the vast endlessness of pure white in Iceland. What is seemingly infinite is just a fraction of the dramatic landscape on the island. Experience the remoteness of an Ice Cap glacier that is home to the new Langjokull Ice Cave. This ice cave high on Langjökull is Iceland’s newest attraction and your chance to enter a world of glacial ice.

With a stunning surrounding environment and informative guides, this tour offers a unique experience for the whole family to enjoy!

Note: We cannot guarantee that the actual view during your visit will match the photographs since ice caves are a natural phenomenon that undergoes constant change. How they look may vary depending on the season, time of the day, lighting, and other factors.

You can meet us at Husafell Center all year round.

During summer you can also meet us at Klaki Basecamp which is located closer to the glacier. Please note that the road leading to Klaki is a gravel road, so a 4x4 vehicle is recommended. Detailed driving instructions will be available on your ticket upon booking.

Please arrive 30 minutes prior to your scheduled departure time.

This tour is also available as a day tour, with pick-up in Reykjavík. Please select the option you prefer in the booking widget.

For those who have chosen to be picked up in Reykjavík, the pick-up time is stated on your voucher that you will receive upon booking. Picking everyone up can take up to 30 minutes, your patience is greatly appreciated! Available pick-up points: Arctic Adventures’ pick-up list.

Kolviður forests are strategically planted to absorb the maximum amount of CO2 and the forests are protected for a minimum of 60 years. During their lifetime the trees absorb carbon and store it in their root system, trunk, and branches. Trees also prevent soil erosion and maintain storage of carbon in the soil.
